I'm posting this warts and all because it was the first time I got through the whole thing. I've been consumed all week with this and it's time to let it go....

I'm not even sure this should be played on a 3 string, but hey- no rules right?

Tuned 513 to open G and this just worked out all right. Mainly using those Keni Lee moveable chords.

Thanks folks!  I remember when I got my first guitar and my Dad said, sort of tongue in cheek, "Play Classical Gas!"  I told him he was crazy and dismissed the idea entirely, but it always stuck with me in the back of my mind.  If not for CBGs, I probably wouldn't have ever tried it.

no one has as much fun playing guitar the Tommy E. Just listening to him talk about guitars you can hear his excitement. bet he'd like this.

Using Professor Keni's moveable chords NICE.
